The Real Return To the Labyrinth
Disclaimer: I have never done one of these, but as I have seen it done before. I Do Not Own Labyrinth or any of the characters from the movie. In later chapters there will be some characters that are of my creation, but they shall come later.
Hello faithful readers. here finally is the chapter I have been dying to put up because you know who is featured in the end. Oh pretty please review. I admit the end of this chapter is my personal favorite so far. (don't tell my Jareth. * wink*)
So, yeah while on the topic of Jareth. Have any of you had to deal with six Fae at the same time? Six very much related Fae. Yep thats right, Jareth has 5 siblings. 2 brothers and 3 sisters. There names all in order of birth is Jareth, Aurora, Alexander, Gemini, Skye, and Skyler. They are three sets of twins. Ahh freaky, but awesome because I am a twin. Yay for being a twin. Well enough about family.
Now to the story~~~~
The first thing Sarah did was walk over to the closet and the dresser. Slowly opening the closet, Sarah saw that it was empty, but it had a long wooden bar inside with several wooden hangers. I guess it would have been a little to much to think that there may have been a dress in here. Sarah closed the door to the closet and opened the drawers of the dresser. Also empty. Great I have no clothes except for the ones on my back. Sarah looked down. she was wearing a comfortable pair of bellbottoms along with a pair of simple black Mary Jane shoes. She wore a white off-the- shoulder peasant blouse with a brown leather vert over it. And to finish the outfit she was wearing her black zip up hoodie. Sarah was about to start mentally kicking herself yet again, an action she found herself doing a lot since she came back to the Labyrinth, when she heard the voice of the Underground talking to her.
"Don't worry about clothes, my child. I brought you here so I will provide what you need."
With that the drawers of the dresser slowly filled with various articles of clothing that Sarah recognized as her clothes from the Aboveground. The Underground had given her several of her t-shirts and pants and shorts along with socks and underwear. Sarah also saw some of her boxers and tank tops, which serve as pajamas. Sarah wandered back to the closet to see what else the Underground had brought for her. Sarah gasped as she opened the door. Inside along with several of her peasant blouses and some of her silky, sexy nightgowns, were dresses of all different colors. There was a light blue one, and a red one, and a purple one, there was a green one, and a white dress too. Sarah took the light blue one out to admire it. It was the same shade as the sky and it had white embroidery. Each dress was made in the same style as the dress she had been wearing the day she wished Toby away. Except instead of being from a cheap costume shop these dresses were made out of silks, satin, and velvet. Sarah couldn't believe that these dresses were hers.
"Consider them a gift, my child. Also remember that your clothes are foreign to some in the Underground and these dresses shall help you remain inconspicuous for now."
Sarah knew that the voice was referring to and reminding Sarah that Jareth couldn't know she was there yet.
"Which one of theses should I wear to the ball? I don't want to get it dirty by wearing it before that night."
"None of these dresses, my child are fit for the ball. When the time comes you shall find the dress that you are destined to wear to the ball, but it will not be handed to you on a silver platter. You will have to pay for it."
Sarah nodded her head, understanding that although she was receiving help she would have to also work to earn her keep and get what see desired. Sarah wandered over to the vanity and opened up her jewelry box that the Underground had also brought to her. There she found several of her rings and necklaces. Some nicer then others, but none compared to what Hoggle had been selling. Sarah took out a necklace that had a gold heart pendant. Her father had given it to her a couple of years ago as a parting gift when she went off to college. Sarah had always thought that he had given it to her just because he felt bad that she got kicked out by her stepmother. Well, it was still a lovely necklace and Sarah undid the clasp and reattached it so that the necklace now hung about her neck. As Sarah brought her arms down she noticed a black velvet jewelers box next to her wooden jewelry box. Carefully she opened it and looked upon the necklace with wonder. She had never seen anything like it. It was a pewter necklace in the shape of a sword sticking straight down with a rose vine on it. A rose sat right where the sword and vine met at the top. The vine appeared to make part of a shape, but Sarah wasn't quite sure what the shape was and she began to look for the second half of the necklace but it was no where to be found.
"You do not have the second half, my child."
The voice startled Sarah for a moment and then she asked who had the other half.
"He does, my child."
Sarah gasped. Why had the Underground given her and Jareth these necklaces and what shape did they make? When the voice didn't answer Sarah's unspoken thoughts, Sarah realized she was alone again. She quickly changed into a pair of white boxers with light gray stripes and her white camisole.
Sarah went to sleep thinking about her half of the necklace, as she clutched it to her breast.
Looking down on the sleeping Goblin City stood a regal man. His short spikey long platinum blonde hair moved in the gentle breeze as he sat in one of the windows of his bedchamber. The regal man was lost in his thoughts as he absentmindedly juggled several crystal balls in his right hand. I wonder what Sarah is doing right now. The man shook his head to get the thoughts of the girl who had defeated him, in more ways then one, out of his head. She didn't chose you. She didn't want to be with you. When are you going to forget about her? When are you going to give up trying to find a way to win her back and make her love you? The man paused in his thoughts as he felt a stirring in the room beyond the window. Quickly he got up and headed to his wardrobe where he saw a quick flash of light that disappeared as soon as it had come. The man looked down and saw a pewter pendant on a chain laying there. The pendant was a sword with a rose vine on it. The vine appeared to make part of a shape, but he didn't know what. I wonder where this came from. As the man picked up the necklace a picture of Sarah popped into his head. The man stumbled back startled, before regaining his footing and walking to lie on his bed still holding the necklace. As Jareth closed his eyes to sleep his mind went back to his earlier train of thought. And the only answer he could think of to his mind's questions was
Never.
